Re/Play facilitates staff in the creation, editing, automatic captioning, publishing and management of audio-visual content. Whilst enrolled at UoB, students can access their units' videos via Blackboard.
You can use the screen capture software to record anything you can see on your screen with corresponding audio and, if chosen, video from a webcam. The software then automatically uploads to your My Re/Play area, which allows you to edit and control the visibility of your recordings or if you wish, allow the process to complete automatically. Staff can download the desktop recorder on Windows 10 and Macs.
You can also capture an in-person lecture in one of the equipped rooms. Once created, the recording is available to students approximately two working days after the lecture.
Re/Play is currently operational in 125 lecture rooms and we now cover all centrally managed teaching spaces with 30 or more seating capacity.
Videos captured with Replay will be automatically uploaded, but you can also upload videos created with different tools.
You can then set permissions, make them downloadable, remove sections of video (visual guide to the editor), request automatic captions, add MCQs, polls and annotations on the video timeline and embed the videos in your course.
You can also access analytics on how the video is being used, for example how much of the video their students are watching, which areas they focus on and the number of views.
